Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Reference
Endpoint:
boiling point
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Experimental result using standard methods of analysis
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 103 (Boiling point/boiling range)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The boiling point of a liquid is the temperature at which that liquid is converted to a gaseous state. It can be defined as the temperature at which the vapour pressure of the liquid becomes equal to the pressure at the surface of the liquid.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of method:
method according to Siwoloboff
Boiling pt.:
234.3 °C
Atm. press.:
967 hPa
Decomposition:
no
Remarks on result:
other: experimental result
Conclusions:
The boiling point determination of3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienenitrile (CAS No. 5146-66-7) was done following OECD Guideline 103 and according to the method of Siwoloboff. The test was conducted in replicates and mean boiling point was found to be 234.3 °C at 967.2 hPa.
Executive summary:

In an experiment conducted by SSS (Europe) AB,the boiling point determination of 3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienenitrile (CAS No. 5146-66-7) was done following OECD Guideline 103 and according to the method of Siwoloboff. The test was conducted in replicates and mean boiling point was found to be 234.3 °C at 967.2 hPa.

Description of key information

In an experiment conducted by SSS (Europe) AB,the boiling point determination of 3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienenitrile (CAS No. 5146-66-7) was done following OECD Guideline 103 and according to the method of Siwoloboff. The test was conducted in replicates and mean boiling point was found to be 234.3 °C at 967.2 hPa.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Boiling point at 101 325 Pa:
234.3 °C

Additional information

In an experiment conducted by SSS (Europe) AB,the boiling point determination of3,7-dimethylocta-2,6-dienenitrile (CAS No. 5146-66-7) was done following OECD Guideline 103 and according to the method of Siwoloboff. The test was conducted in replicates and mean boiling point was found to be 234.3 °C at 967.2 hPa.

Other supporting studies from reliable sources such as authoritative database and review article also suggests that the boiling of chemical is between the range of 234 degree C to 260 degree C.

As the data from lab has K1 reliability and the test was performed using OECD guidelines which has the value of boilingg point as 234.3 degree celcius thus considered as key study for the chemical safety assessment.
